A mount dedicated to the winners of the 2016 Spring Global Championship, MVP Black, was added ingame with this week's patch.

Just like 2015 world champions Cloud 9 got the Champion's Nexagon, MVP Black are honored ingame with a mount due to their victory in the 2016 Spring Global Championship.

The 2016 Spring Champion's Mount is identical to the Champion's Nexagon, but obviously sports the colours of MVP Black instead. It costs $4.99 USD or €4.99 EUR and a portion of the proceeds will go directly to MVP Black.

Blizzard Entertainment

The members of top South Korean Heroes of the Storm team MVP Black rose victorious over all who opposed them at the 2016 Spring Championship—not even dropping a single game over the course of the weekend’s events. In honor of their achievement, we’re going to add the 2016 Spring Champion’s Mount to the in-game shop with our next patch!

Celebrate MVP Black as the reigning Heroes of the Storm World Champions by picking up this esports-themed mount, emblazoned with the MVP team logo, for $4.99 USD. When you purchase the 2016 Spring Champion’s Mount you’ll also be helping to directly support MVP Black, as a portion of each sale will be shared with the team. If you’d like to add the 2016 Spring Champion’s Mount to your collection, it will be available for purchase until a new champion is crowned during the 2016 Summer Championship this June.

Kindly join us in congratulating the members of MVP Black once again for their great accomplishment this season:

Jae Won "Rich" Lee

Jung Hyuk "Sake" Lee

Tae Jun "merryday" Yi

Won Ho "KyoCha" Jeong

Ji Hoon "Sign" Yoon

Redditor Keatrock created a thread about the upcoming Hero and the Heroes of the Storm community has been fervently discussing the latest addition to the Nexus. Subsourian pointed out a Heroes of the Storm Facebook page comment that confirms a hint in the teaser and Blizzard's plans to celebrate the StarCraft anniversary with a real Hero.

The vast majority thinks it's Fenix, but the background in the teaser depicts the door to the Spear of Adun according to redditor dave7882. The door can be seen at around 1:03 in the video below. The Hero standing next to Artanis is Karax.
